Reviews and Ratings
The hotel could have had slightly larger rooms compared to other similar hotels, but they were clean with soft beds, hot water, and a working refrigerator. The adjacent area had a slight smell of wet dog, though.
The hotel I stayed at had a great location, making it easy to get on and off the freeway and close to everything. However, the cleanliness of the rooms was a major issue. The staff tried to accommodate us with room changes, but some areas were not properly taken care of.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the service was exceptional with staff going out of their way to make my stay memorable, the room was disappointing as it wasn't clean upon check-in at 4 am. The location was convenient for my needs, although some locals described it as a 'bad part of town. ' The dining options were hit and miss, with a lack of breakfast available at the promised time. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
